Panel Glides

Inside Mount

Check the opening is deep enough to allow the panel glides sliding operation. Depth required will vary as this depends on track size to be used. Ensure there are no obstructions in the window opening that will prevent the sliding operation of the product.

Width

Measure the width of the window from the inside edge of the window frame from left to right. Measure at 3 points, top, middle and bottom and supply the smallest measurement.

Drop

Measure the height of the window from the inside edge of the window frame from top to bottom. Measure at 2 points, left and right and supply the smallest measurement.

Outside Mount (Installing Onto Architrave)

When panel glides are to be installed on the face of an opening, this can allow for the product to extend past the window to allow for greater light block. Make sure area is checked for any obstructions, like furniture or light switches.

Width

Measure the width of the window from outer edge of the architrave to the opposite outer edge. To offer better light control and privacy, it is recommended the track extends past each side of the architrave. The size you take the track past is up to you, but it is recommended that at least 100mm each side is added.

Drop

Measure the height from the top edge of the architrave to where you want the blind to finish. Measure at 2 points and supply the shortest measurement. If measuring to the floor, supply total measurement. If measuring to the base of the window architrave, if possible, add a minimum 50mm to the drop measurement to assist in better light block and privacy.
